Gen Z Stands Up Against Nepal’s Old Guard
Anil Baniya, a prominent Gen Z leader from Nepal, has voiced strong concerns about the country’s aging political establishment. He revealed that the younger generation faces constant attempts to undermine their confidence and leadership abilities. Baniya emphasized that their movement didn’t arise overnight. Instead, it grew from the deep frustration of youth who feel ignored and underestimated by those in power.
Calls for Change and Fresh Leadership
Baniya explained that Nepal’s youth want a bigger say in the direction of their country. He believes the established leaders try to “break” the confidence of young changemakers by labeling them as inexperienced and incapable. Despite these challenges, Gen Z activists continue to rally for more transparency, accountability, and opportunities for younger generations. Their movement is gaining momentum as more young people demand real change in Nepal’s political landscape.
